NPD Manager

Are you a creative food innovator with a passion for bringing exciting products to market? This is an outstanding opportunity for an NPD Manager to join a fast-paced food manufacturing business where ideas, collaboration and commercial thinking are at the heart of everything they do.

Reporting directly to the Operations Director, you'll lead the innovation agenda from concept through to launch - identifying market trends, developing customer-focused solutions and ensuring products are delivered efficiently, compliantly and to the highest standards. Working closely with customers, suppliers, technical, production and sales teams, you'll play a pivotal role in shaping the future product portfolio.

This role would suit someone with strong NPD project management experience within food manufacturing, excellent market awareness, and the ability to build strong relationships across both internal teams and customers. You'll be someone who enjoys working at pace, spotting opportunities and turning ideas into successful products.

The role offers a hybrid working pattern of 4 days on site and 1 day working remotely.
